How Burgundy Winemakers Are Battling Climate Change in Their Vineyards

Hello of frost drought rain forest fire. Extremely, every year ends the world’s world, with increasing frequency every year, grapes, grapes and people. This is especially true in Burgundy, which has been saved from the fire that has destroyed other regions, but in the region, out of the cold, non -time rain, summer temperatures rising and drought in the last decade. All of their grapes and their livelihoods, all of Bergundi, and the vibrantists are simultaneously turning to the ancient technology and farming methods of farming so that they can avoid destruction in their streams. A combination of electromagnetic clay monitors, seasonal stations, and electric tractors that connect with traditional agricultural methods such as biodemic farming, organic, and agriculture, helps to improve the health of the bulls, which improves the quality of their alcohol and improves the quality of alcohol.

In Gori, the domain duo -salaier ox moans, located in the center of Kot Clone in southern Burgundi, the domain owner Philip Pascal looked at the dirt and approached the issue. Starting with the historic Close Du Seller Oxy Mons – the wall -mounted walls in the middle of Winery’s holdings that were first returned by the cesterican monks in the twelfth century – Fascal wanted to go deeper than the monks who had laid the foundation of the Bergundi Apple. Pascal is interested in the work of the famous Chilean soil and grape expert Pedro Para and his French research colleague Paul Kerg, and he also wanted to apply a modern, scientific approach to grape maping. Therefore, he experienced soil power conductivity to help understand the geographical differences within the state. “The results were beyond our expectations Rob reports. “Close -Du Seller Oxy Monsial Mappering maping has helped us better understand the variety of soil variations at a depth of 1.5 meters, where most of the roots are getting their minerals.”

Pascal decided to stop the transfer of chemical treatment and organic farming when it received a domain in 2004, receiving organic and biodemic certification in 2020 and 2023, respectively. Pascal and Technical Director Galom Marco try to expect, identify and solve problems using natural methods. Both natural herbs that are used by alternative medicine practitioners – both natural herbs, with biodenia techniques such as yarrow infusion – help grapes to resist heat stress, which is a very important heat during hot heat. And the state’s more fertile, natural soil helper bacteria, insects, insects, insects and fungi are packed with a network that also helps to resist drought. “With a better understanding of our terrain, becoming a better farmer and a more active vitalist, has improved our grape quality and natural energy,” says Pascal.

In Chablas, the famous area of the Chardana, north of Bergundi, the liquor maker and the vitcialist Julian Broker, gradually moved to biodemic farming when he began management of his father’s property, Jane Mark broker, though his father had almost a little. “When we discussed, my father’s friends and importers and distributors began to say,” Wow, this alcohol is amazing, “and my father said that it was time for me to take power.” Rob reports. Its family has about 500 acres in the region, and in addition to transmitting a large part of the state to organic and biodenial, Brookard also began to cultivate the dense drains of the trees, a point of view that is known as agricultural, to help them expand their lives. He says, “The most important problem in Chabbles is the monoclastic: we just add a grape, so we need to bring gevios.”

Plant 17 acres of trees between its grapes – with 25 more along the way – broker has seen a dramatic change. “Wildlife is returning,” he says. “We have 25 types of trees and various plants that give flowers all year long to bring bees and other insects.” And when the trees feel as if they will provide groundwater from grapes to a great extent, this has not happened. “Trees attract birds, insects and other animals, and roots maintain a special moisture, so they do not fight water.” Brookard knows what is happening below the surface thanks to the soil monitor network, and he monitors the external environment with a collective seasonal station jointly by 15 producers. Now Jean -Mark Brookard and his own small brand, in -charge of making vitality and wine in Julian Brookard, limit carbon emissions using technology and old -fashioned farming. The streams are worked with two electric tractors, and they maintain the core crops between the grapes to protect them from sun and drought. He says, “Sometimes we have three wet months and then three dry months and this is a way of protecting soil.” In addition, cover crops also help prevent cold damage, which is another risk with unstable samples of the weather.

The wedding stations also help make the liquor make sure how to defend the threats like mold, mildew and other pests. Laurent Palt, owner of the domain Fernanda Et Laurent Pellet in the Chasgen-Intercontinent, says the use of sophisticated weather surveillance equipment can adopt “rain-based organic treatment, which can be very different among different areas.” He explains that working with a tractor equipped with advanced technology, he can help to treat the bull’s address directly. “In organic vitality, we mainly spray with sulfur, copper micro -dose, and multi -flower tea.” “So the treatment of diseases are ineffective if we are not extremely precise in our work.” After being forgotten for chemical video for 15 years and physically cultivating our grapes for five, the pallet has indicated the benefits of allowing grapes to flourish in its streams: “Since July, we allow the grass to grow by next year’s March. It helps to absorb the environment with a large amount of global.”

They all look like small steps, but collectively they join. Brookard says some of his neighbors are catching up the idea of agricultural consciousness, and Pascal said that one of the reasons for working with biodenial certification bodhine is that its members are appreciated and encouraged. While the domain duo -salaier Ox Moins is currently the only state of the jury, which is confirmed by Biodenomet, Marco and others in the Pascal region are also affecting the bandwagen. It may be too late to prevent the destruction of climate change from changing our planet permanently, but carefully modified science and time honors, with chemical -free farming methods, will continue to make some of the best wine in the world for years.
